Travis Wetland is an important site for the local and regional conservation of wetland plants. Nearly 80 per cent of pre-European native wetland plant species are present in the wetland, including some now rare on the Canterbury Plains. There are around 53 species of native and introduced birds, including around fifty percent of the population of pukeko in Christchurch.
Come and join us at this project. We'll be there from 9:30am-12:30 but you're welcome to come for as much or as little time as you'd like.
Bring: Your own gardening gloves, gumboots or waterproof shoes, a water bottle and sunhat. Please wear long sleeves and trousers as protection from the sun and vegetation.
We’ll supply tools, but you are welcome to bring your own - we'll be using hand tools - flax knives and secateurs.
We'd love to see you there, so please register below. Contact us at christchurch@cvnz.org.nz or call Donna at 021457 568
